Nearly 12,000 Miles, Minimal Showers, One Genius Solution
A shower in a packet, no loofah required
Hello, Gorgeous!
It’s been a minute. Are we still saying Happy New Year! or are we over the forced merriment?
Moving right along.
I’m tired. Deep bone weary tired that comes with flying nearly 12,000 miles in just over a week. In a tin can. With feral flight attendants and Soviet era airplanes (or at least it felt that way). And some bug I think I picked up on the flight home. But still, the trip proved to be the most intense spiritual and emotional experience of my entire life (I’ll tell you about it another time) and I missed you all too much to stay away any longer.
Over the past few days I’ve done something I never do. I ate in bed. Twice. One time was steel cut oats. Everyone knows that oats = fiber and fiber = health so it was more a health thing than a lazy girl thing. The second time was some vegan chocolate pudding. Well, vegan = plant-based = EVEN HEALTHIER. So please don’t hold this lapse against me.
You know what I didn’t do much in the past two days? Shower. I know. Gross. But my jet lag has been impressive. You know what saved me from becoming a walking biohazard? These fantastic huge body wipes from Horzbath (Sound it out. It might take a few seconds to get the dad humor in the name).
Honestly, who can resist a product that touts itself by saying “Smell more pleasant than you do at present?”
They’re huge at 12”x 12” as opposed to most wipes which are geared for your nether regions. They’re tough and work hard to de-stank your rank self. I only wish I’d have had these on the flights too. On sale now for $10 for 10 towelettes, horzbath.com.
How’s your New Year going? Have you showered yet today? What’s your coping mechanism when running on fumes? Let’s meet in the comments to discuss!

You may be suffering mightily from incapacitating jet lag and a nasty bug but you’re funnier than ever!
Wasn’t I thinking only a day or two ago about my mother’s colorful slang for “perfume!” Glad the trip fulfilled or exceeded your expectations. Heal well.
